Attachment 31_Map Rail Ridge 2026 Planting Unit_66.pdf

This is a project map for the Rail Ridge Planting 2026 initiative on the Malheur National Forest. Unit 66 comprises 43 acres located in Township 15 South, Range 28 East, and is designated for reforestation activities. The planting project targets 195 trees per acre (TPA) with an average spacing of 15 feet by 15 feet, using Ponderosa Pine (PIPO) exclusively as the species mix at 100 percent composition.

The map displays infrastructure and environmental features relevant to project execution, including road access classifications ranging from closed roads to high-degree user comfort roads suitable for passenger cars, contour lines at 100-foot and 500-foot intervals, and stream categorizations (uncategorized, Category 1, 2, and 4 streams). The unit boundaries are clearly delineated with green borders, and the planting area is depicted with tree symbols indicating planned placement. The project area references specific identified locations including closures on certain access routes and high-clearance vehicle requirements on alternative pathways.
